Maintenance
After operation, clean the spray parts and surface of the aircraft in a timely manner. Regular aircraft
maintenance should be conducted.
Cleaning After Operation
Pesticides are caustic and could corrode the device, shortening its lifespan. Clean the device timely after
each operation. The cleaning steps are as follows:
Detergent: soapy water or laundry powder/water mixture

B.Aircraft:
① Fill the liquid tank with soapy water or the laundry powder/water mixture. Start spraying to clean
pesticide residues in the spraying system.
② Fill the liquid tank with clean water and start spraying to wash off residual soapy water or the laundry
powder/water mixture in the spraying system.
③ Place the empty liquid tank in the aircraft and start spraying until all tubes are drained, avoiding
damage to other devices during transportation or storage.
④ Wring out the damp rag and wipe the surface of the aircraft to remove potion stains and mud. Empty
the liquid tank and drain the tubes if the aircraft needs to be transferred or will not be used for an
extended period.
Regular Maintenance
Wear and tear as well as malfunctions in/of the device could occur as a result of ordinary use. Regular
maintenance ensures that the device performs at its best in future operations with fewer malfunctions
and improved efficiency. Maintenance steps are as follows:
A. Airframe
① Check if any screw on the airframe is loosening or missing.
② Check if the components including landing gears, fuselage, arms, motors and antennas are secure.
③ Check if the connectors of each component are firmly in position, whether they have oxidized, and if
the battery plug is deformed.
④ Check breakages and cracks on the airframe and components. Check if the beams of the aircraft are
bent out of shape or broken, if the fasteners joining the arms and motors together are secure, if the
arms are bent and twisted, or if the parts on the arms are at a proper angle.
⑤ The aircraft should be cleaned regularly and thoroughly, especially those hard-to-clean spots
including the liquid tank socket and battery plug on the airframe.
